Nasty taste in mouth

I finished the third of my 4 C+T chemo sessions on 12/26/2012, and for the last two sessions I've noticed a persistent nasty taste in my mouth.  It feels fuzzy inside.  I've brushed diligently, flossed, and used the water pik, only to have the sensation return almost immediately.

Any suggestions?  I'd love to have a fresh tasting mouth and get rid of that scuzzy feeling.

Thanks so much for any helpful tips.

    Some people use baking soda/salt/water to swish and spit sevral times daily.  1/4 teaspoon of each to 1 c. water.  Hope this helps.  Mention this to your MO as this may be thrush and you might need an anti-fungal to control it.
